Using my phone not good with doing links and stuff like that. It's on ebay under spares or repair.

Did you replace the copper washers yourself or at a garage? Seems a shame if you want to keep the car. Did you use genuine washers and clean the seat of the injectors?

The injectors were done at a garage using proper seals it probably can be fixed but I've given up.

The trick with these, apart from scrupulously cleaning the bottom of the bolt hole, is to use Honda washers.

I have never seen a failure after using Honda washers
